I stopped by jewelry designer and artist Lisa Coris' apartment the other night to see her recent score - a beautiful (and expandable) Danish modern dining table. It's really gorgeous, and practical, too. The leaves at either end slide in to create a smaller, more intimate dining experience.

While there, she also shared with me some of her new found, old artwork. Lisa has one heck of an eye, and is an excellent curbside treasure finder! Take a look at some of these pieces...some she painted herself, some you might recognize (Like For Ever), and some she literally found on a street corner, like the cool skateboard deck, and the amazing, and quite huge, portrait on white board.

Lisa's coffee table idea was quite smart, too. This is two Ikea tables put together with a bamboo runner across the seam to create one large, great-looking coffee table.

hi guys - i check with lisa and she bought these two rectangular tables at ikea some time ago. but any two tables, like maybe the Lack would work back-to-back. in fact, i think i saw the white Lack table back-to-back in a resent Dominio room make-over.
